RoyBatty is alive Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) If one believes in TMZ. Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Spencer Brown had a wild experience at the airport Tuesday ... saying a pissed-off passenger unhatched his plane's emergency inflatable slide and escaped on it before take-off! The 24-year-old football player described the chaos in a series of tweets ... explaining a woman was so angry about something on the plane at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport, she deployed an emergency slide to get off. "Sitting on a plane," Brown said, describing the scene. "A lady is pissed. Lady pulls the emergency inflatable slide to escape the plane. Lady is running wild through the tarmac currently." I wouldn't want to mess around on an airplane with Spencer Brown, man is huge (and best draft pick from last year so far).

Considering how big he is, the guy has to be rather limited in his movements in that metal tube. I wonder if that basically made everyone have to get out of the plane at that point, I imagine there must be some sort of process a plane has to go through after that has been used. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you can't just activate those slides, have to properly deflate them, fold them back if possible, and putting them back has to be done precisely. Dont know the rules and regs on those. That was probably a several hour delay, most likely had to change planes, not only that they had to track down the crazy lady on active runways. With so many cellphone cameras shocked there isn't some video of it already. Edited April 20, 2022 by RoyBatty is alive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a "smart arse response." When an emergency slide is activated, it triggers a pneumatic inflation system that gets the slide from packed and stored to its evacuation position. Kind of like a very large scale airbag. You don't just deflate it and re-pack it in the storage bustle. It must be removed and replaced and that takes a good deal of time and a lot of expense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eSJayDee Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I used to cater commercial airplanes (albeit like 40 yrs ago). I thought in order to deploy those shutes, the door had to be blown off.

I thought in order to deploy those shutes, the door had to be blown off. (We almost had one deploy on us once when the flight attendants failed to disconnect it.) Nope. The door doesn't "blow off." It depends on which door slide is activated. First, the main entry must be armed. On the ground, prior to movement, they are not armed. Once the airplane moves, the flight attendants arm their doors for automatic deployment. Once armed, the slides will deploy if the door is opened. On main entry doors, the door stays where it is. On over wing hatches, which are not "armed," the hatch is pulled in and must be thrown out. The slide will deploy once the hatch is pulled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An NFTA spokeswoman said 24-year-old Cynthia McKnight of Sacramento faces a number of charges, including disorderly conduct, harassment, trespassing and criminal mischief. NFTA detectives said McKnight opened the cargo door of the plane. She was turned over to the Genesee County Sheriff's Office for pending warrants. The American Airlines flight she was aboard was en route to Chicago. The slide in Spencer Brown's picture was not positioned where the cargo door is, nor does the cargo door deploy a slide when opened.

People are getting crazy they need to ban her from any future flights if she's willing to do that there's no telling what she might do ... She's on American's "no fly list" pending investigation. Would not be a shock if other airlines follow suit. It's a Big Deal in today's "just in time/just what's needed" air travel world. The plane has to go out of service while the slide and door get checked out and re-packed/re-armed. All the pax need rebooked (65 people), but worse than that, the plane was undoubtedly scheduled for 1-2 more flights that evening/night and still more the next morning, so there will be follow-on effects in the system She can Go Greyhound, use Amtrak, or stick out her thumb from now on. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the lady has to do is open the cabin door to force the deployment. Any time a slide or raft is deployed, it has to be removed, inspected, tested, packed and reinstalled. It is not a short process and I highly doubt the maintenance department for that airline has spare slides sitting at an out-base. I know Chataqua didn’t. That airplane was AOG the moment she opened the door. I don’t know the specific procedure for that airline but I’m betting everyone was deplaned, and the had to either swap planes or wait for another plane to be brought in from another hub.

Closing a door does not arm the slide. The slide must be armed (and disarmed on arrival), intentionally. Your comments on the calls that flight attendants make are true, but the slides are not armed until they do that. There are many times that the doors are closed and the doors not armed, ie if the bridge is still hooked up and there is a delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
